Question

I feel like my temps is not accurate! what is the proper way to BBT temp? When do you discord a temp? what affect your temps? I just feel like I’m doing something wrong. I normally go to sleep from 2 AM to 6:40 am. On the weekends I sometimes drink. I move in my sleep. Sometimes I wake up earlier than 6:40. When should I start taking ovulation test?

Answer

You need to get cheap opks and test 2 days after your period 2 Times a day till both lines are the same color or test line is darker than control whatever comes first is your positive ovulation can occur in 12- 48 hours after positive. Opks don’t confirm ovulation or dpo so you need to add bbt to confirm ovulation you temp your cycle by picking A time in the a.m. to take your temp when you have at least 3 hours of sleep. Temp with a bbt thermometer that read like 97.34 you take your temp at that time you picked before you move or get out of bed and say within 30 mins of that picked time. I do 4:20 cus I’m know I gotta pee and i know I’ll have 3 hours of sleep. I temp pee and go back to sleep.  Your lookin for lower temps before ovulation and higher after. Once positive opk then ovulation can occur in 12-48 hours then your looking for a temp rise and for your temps to stay up. temp to confirm ovulation and you will know when you ovulated, dpo, luteal phase length (is from the day after ovulation to period which stays the same each cycle give or take 1-2 days. Average length is 12-14 days give or take 1-2 days.) when period is coming by temp drop or if you miss your period and your temp stays up then there is a chance for pregnancy
